Caribbean Ghostwriting addresses a question central to the fields of postcolonial, feminist, and African diasporic studies:how are we to know the colonial past when the lives of colonized and enslaved people were largely written out of history? Caribbean authors Michelle Cliff, Maryse Conde, and Dionne Brand address the silences and gaps of historiography by fleshing out overlooked historical figures in literary form. These authors do not simply reconstruct lost lives, but rather they foreground the tension between the real, material traces of peoples lives and the fact of their erasure. In novels that are at once historical, biographical, and artistic, they portray real but sparsely documented and therefore haunting histories through a strategy identifiable as ghostwriting. Erica L. Johnson defines ghostwriting as an important genre of Caribbean literature through which authors literally ghostwrite stories for lost historical figures even while they poetically preserve the unspeakable nature of the archival lacunae their novels engage.

In this bold book, Samuel Cohen asserts the literary and historical importance of the period between the fall of the Berlin wall and that of the Twin Towers in New York. With refreshing clarity, he examines six 1990's novels and two post-9/11 novels that explore the impact of the end of the Cold War: Pynchon's Mason & Dixon, Roth's American Pastoral, Morrison's Paradise, O'Brien's In the Lake of the Woods, Didion's The Last Thing He Wanted, Eugenides's Middlesex, Lethem's Fortress of Solitude, and DeLillo's Underworld. Cohen emphasizes how these works reconnect the past to a present that is iro

Les malheurs du temps - la guerre, la famine ou la peste - nous sont connus grâce à des témoignages. Grandes plumes nobles, littérateurs ou gens sans qualité, ces écrits divers sont autant de sources pour les récits et les analyses des historiens. Leur usage pose pourtant problème. Dès le XVIIe siècle, en effet, inscrire un témoignage sur le papier faisait participer à une culture écrite orientée par la circulation de débats, de normes et de discours constitutifs de ce qui commençait à devenir la littérature. Ce livre raconte les " malheurs du temps " à partir de documents, récits de peste, lettres d'administrateurs, journaux, sermons, poèmes. Chemin faisant, il étudie la mise en écriture des expériences vécues et l'utilisation des textes littéraires par les historiens. Les auteurs rouvrent ainsi de nombreux dossiers historiographiques : par exemple celui des " Mémoires du XVIIIe siècle ", artificiellement érigés par l'histoire littéraire en conservatoire de l'identité et des valeurs nobiliaires ; celui de la terrible famine de 1662 ; celui des écrits paysans mis au service de l'histoire du siècle des Lumières ; et bien évidemment celui de la composante émotionnelle des anciennes mises en récit du malheur, qui n'est pas sans effet sur notre propre émotion face à ces témoignages écrits.

The first volume of the new series "European Avant-Garde and Modernism Studies" focuses on the relation between the avant-garde, modernism and Europe. It combines interdisciplinary and intermedial research on experimental aesthetics and poetics. The essays, written by experts from more than fifteen countries, seek to bring out the complexity of the European avant-garde and modernism by relating it to Europe's intricate history, multiculturalism and multilingualism. They aim to inquire into the divergent cultural views on Europe taking shape in avant-garde and modernist practices and to chart a composite image of the "other Europe(s)" that have emerged from the (contemporary) avant-garde and experimental modernism. How did the avant-garde and modernism in (and outside) Europe give shape to local, national and pan-European forms of identity and community? To what extent does the transnational exchange and cross-fertilisation of aesthetic tendencies illustrate the well-rehearsed claim that the avant-gardes form a typically European phenomenon? Dealing with canonised as well as lesser known exponents of modernism and the avant-garde throughout Europe, this book will appeal to all those interested in European cultural, literary and art history.
